The Five Boroughs

New York City is made up of five boroughs: the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island. Each one has enough attractions—and enough personality—to be a city all its own. Learn more about them with this guide.

Morgan's Brooklyn Barbecue

267 Flatbush Ave. (at St. Marks Ave.)

Brooklyn, NY 11217

Morgan's is Brooklyn through and through, a restaurant with a DIY edge that's as mindful of families with young kids as it is of the borough's bearded whiskey fanatics. The Texas-style barbecue is treated seriously (very good brisket, pulled pork and ribs), but there's also the whimsical, crowd-pleasing frito pie smothered with Texas red chili; loaded baked potatoes; and church-supper standby green bean casserole. The restaurant offers a big, casual, wood-detailed space, with a late-night menu of barbecue sandwiches starting at 11pm.
